Quarantined Abandon
Allowance is issued by allegiance
Descent
De scenting the grain
Defection from account
The man above watches
As open journal
His story is carved
And reared
Nearer grown abundant
Recital of vow and order
un adhered
Ends actions statements
A fold is created
Company is kept seperate

Close Associate Quarantined - Jesus Saved Me Again
I will not shy away from Jesus' love
Once again, a church worker failed the test
Did not tell me, "I have been quarantined."
This, my prayer partner, with me day
After day, as we give hope to the aged!
This was told to "Prayer Partner" at work
About a week ago. Friday, a call
To lend money, Thousand in my

On Being Quarantined
On Being Quarantined
By Betty Harp Butler
Lord, you know that I am
Tired of being quarantined.
I don’t like having to stay inside
And all of the problems that brings.
I want to walk, skip, and run.
I want to feel the sunshine,
And the wind on my face,
That is almost like a warm embrace.
But…
When I consider the alternative
I think I will

Quarantined
By Franklin Price

So you're tired of being quarantined
Are at home and off the street
The restaurants have shut their doors
Take out's all there is to eat
Could try to fix some for yourself
With the help of family
Who knows, it could be edible
You'll just have to try and see
Or as a bear in winter,
Could sleep the COVID through
Then

Feelings While Quarantined
Sudden fear struck by body
And I could barely breath
Move or speak
When I first heard about
The corona virus and
All its destruction
It's even scarier to
Believe that it's in
Your city and your town
What makes it even worse is
That I don't know who it
Has already attached itself to
Could be my family or
My closest friends
Now I'm stuck in isolation
Like a

Self Quarantined Misanthrope Pitched Into Purgatory Wham
Self quarantined misanthrope pitched into purgatory wham!
Ably cane resign eternal damnation (mine)
courtesy devil specially engraved telegram
prestidigitation found me vanishing shazam,
without a trace I disappeared in thin air voila
Earthly travails atop horns of dilemma ram
into me buttucks pitching yours truly ma'am
hoisted by my own petard sheepishly wool
ewe (red dully) bull heave human bug eyed
recalcitrant specimen (me)

Quarantined
This warm spring day a bright display
when souls desire to run and play,
but we must stay six feet away
to save our health from disarray.
I cannot see why this must be;
I pray to Thee, please set us free.
I long to trace lines of her face,
and feel the touch of her embrace
that makes the pace of heartbeats

Quarantined, My Story
'Quality is Job One' is a great marketing tool for the Ford Motor company.
Until a cure is found, quality of life becomes secondary to survival itself.
After survival is achieved, life, as usual, becomes a matter of discussion.
Rationale and certain constitutional rights are also set aside until the cure,
And until then, like an orchestra, the world

Quarantined Spring
There's plenty of empty
Shelves and pantries
The streets weep for missing feet
Crowds of clouds float and gloat
Mocking our lot, as they mingle and flock
Oh, the lords of hoard now run the board
Going by social media shifts
Toilet paper's now the sought-after gift
One can't use scanty panties
To clean your fanny's nooks and crannies
In this sparse farce
The walls grow

Quarantined
Waking up to this strange dream
First sight is the checkered ceiling
Then the antique bathroom mirror
I see old age and worried red eyes
I see another drawn day of breathing
My beard is out of control with grey
I am home now and not going out
I hear helicopters often in the sky
The morning time is escape time
The missus
